Turn an episode into a week of posts
Castmagic takes a recorded episode and returns show notes, timestamps, clips, a newsletter and social posts from the same upload, which is the repurposing job most podcasters do by hand on a Monday. Custom prompts let you fix the house style once. Hours are a library total rather than monthly, so a long back catalogue eats a plan on import.
Only on this side
Filler words and mouth sounds removed
Cleanvoice takes a finished recording and strips out the parts nobody wants to hear: filler words, mouth sounds, breaths and dead air. It handles video podcasts as well as audio and hands back a timeline export you can drop into whatever you edit in. Billing counts hours of audio processed rather than seats, so an occasional show is cheap to run. Credits bought outright stay valid for two years.
Our note
Buying by the hour rather than by the seat is the right shape for a fortnightly show, and it is why this beats a general editor's subscription for that use. Descript is the better buy if you want to edit the words as well as clean them.
